Daming: At the start of the showdown, Lao Zhu was stunned

Chapter 195 The Conservative King and the Kaiyuan Hero

"Father has never forgotten his roots, and his position has never been on the side of nobles and bureaucrats. Brother, don't forget, his old man lost his parents at a young age, and his parents, you and me The grandfather of the two was forced to death by corrupt officials!"

"Confucianism says that the one who cares about the common people is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He is the only emperor who came from the common people for thousands of years! If you ask which emperor in this world cares about the common people the most, who can be compared to his old man? How can you think that Dad is a tyrant just because he killed so many corrupt officials?"

"..." Zhu Biao was speechless, the previous anger and stubbornness on his face had dissipated a lot.

Zhu Su secretly breathed a sigh of relief, remembering that later generations had one of the sayings about the cause of Zhu Biao's death: it was said that Zhu Biao was because he met the old Zhu and wanted to punish the courtiers, but he was scolded by the old Zhu who hated iron and steel. Therefore, he jumped into the pool of the imperial garden under the agitation of his heart.

Although he was rescued at that time, the root cause of the disease has fallen since then, and he died young not long after.

Judging from the look of the eldest brother just now, he is indeed very dissatisfied with Lao Zhu's brutality.I hope what I said can untie his knot.

"...Although I said so, there are too many Zhulians after all." Zhu Biao sighed, although the agitated look on his face was no longer there, but there was still a deep sense of melancholy.

"Father is also a courtier of Zhulian, and he wants to lose his face. The action is too big."

"It should be noted that even though Bei Yuan was expelled from the pass, the rest of his strength is still strong. It's like a tiger watching from the side, An Neng ignores it?"

"Naha, the Taiwei of the Northern Yuan Dynasty, came out of Liaodong, leading 20 tigers and tigers. From time to time, he would come to our Ming Dynasty to plunder."

"Father is still planning to destroy Yunnan. Brother Mu Yi has followed father's order to train soldiers in the south, and the battle will start soon."

"The land in the south of the Yangtze River has been repeatedly attacked by Japanese..."

Every time Zhu Biao said a word, the gap between his brows deepened.

"This is a troubled time! At this time, the court will be unstable again. In case of external troubles and internal troubles at the same time..."

Zhu Su could only remain silent.Zhu Biao's worry is actually not unreasonable. At this time, people are panicking and the court is unstable.

If Bei Yuan took the opportunity to attack, or if Naha in Liaodong sent out troops to cause chaos, or if Yunnan Liang Wang took advantage of the unstable court to raise troops...

For Daming, it was definitely a huge blow!Maybe the rest and recuperation from the first year of Hongwu to this few years will be destroyed in an instant.

In fact, this is the essential difference between the ruler of success and the hero of Kaiyuan like Lao Zhu, and the strategy of governing the country.

Zhu Biao will undoubtedly be an excellent ruler of success, his instinct is to maintain stability and balance.

Even though it is necessary to abolish the phases and purge the court, but facing the situation where the external aggression has not been eliminated at this time, he will subconsciously think that these "secondary conflicts" should be put on hold for the time being, and he should get through these individual problems first. The urgently approaching external problems, and then use energy to deal with these disharmonious factors within the court.

And Lao Zhu, the hero of Kaiyuan, has the courage and great skills to believe that he can control everything.

In the eyes of heroes like Lao Zhu, the existence of these corrupt officials is the root cause of the instability of the court, and such cancers should be eliminated quickly!
In Zhu Su's view, these two points of view are justified by the public, and justified by the mother-in-law. If you ask about some historical events that may happen in the future, you can still interject one or two.Once the issue of this concept of governing the country is involved, I can only be blinded, and I must be blinded.

Zhu Su couldn't answer Zhu Biao's question, and the scene suddenly fell into silence.Fortunately, this silence didn't last long, and a voice that the two brothers were very familiar with sounded from the door:

"Boss, you are too worried!"

"This time, we have been very restrained!"

"You know, according to the original plan, we are going to set off four major cases in a row, killing 8 people in a row!"

Seeing the tall figure of the old Zhu coming in from outside, Zhu Biao and Zhu Su were all stunned. After realizing it, Zhu Biao quickly stood up and saluted: "My son Zhu Biao, I have seen my father!"

"It's okay. With a beard, I've grown estranged from my father." Lao Zhu gave his eldest son a reproachful look.Zhu Biao noticed the "resentment" in his old father's eyes, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

Old Zhu turned his face and looked at Zhu Su with a smile: "You bastard, you are smarter than a monkey. Did you realize that we were standing behind the door with all the nice words just now?"

"Then how can it be!" Zhu Su chuckled, seeing that Lao Zhu was in a good mood, so he didn't get up, and casually cupped his hands as if he had passed the royal ceremony. "Your kindness to the people will be praised in future generations!"

"Hahahahaha, after we killed so many people, we thought that we would definitely be known as a tyrant in history!"

"I didn't expect, but there are also people who think about our kindness!"

What Lao Zhu said in this sentence is really comforting.Although he values ​​practice and despises fame, but whoever becomes an emperor would really want to be infamous through the ages?

"Enough, enough! We don't bother to pay attention to how many people scold us, but if there is someone who reads history books and praises us, we are enough!" Lao Zhu sighed, and Zhu Biao on the side looked at him with a happy smile but couldn't help it. Some lonely old fathers, remembering that at a certain moment in his heart just now, he also felt that he was a tyrant, and almost shed tears of guilt.

"Forgive you bastard, you are not smart enough to flatter us to make us happy like that. Show us the wound, is it deep?" Old Zhu didn't notice the look on Zhu Biao's face, but just said to Zhu Su.

"We thought that you were definitely faking your injuries. But we didn't want to, you actually stabbed yourself with a sword! Hahahaha, who would dare to investigate you even if you were pretending? But lying on the couch for nothing day!"

When he said the first half of the sentence, Lao Zhu still had a bit of distress on his face, but when he said the second half of the sentence, he seemed to be talking about a big joke. Seeing Zhu Su with a constipated face, he actually laughed.

"... Li Yuan just tied up the wound for me, so don't look at it. My elder brother was there when I tied it up, so it's nothing serious." Zhu Su said to Lao Zhu.Seeing Zhu Biao nodding his head to confirm, Lao Zhu also felt relieved.

"Boss, you just said to Lao Wu that you think we are going too far?" Now that Zhu Biao was mentioned, Lao Zhu and Zhu Biao got to the point.Zhu Biao's original knots were almost resolved by Zhu Su, and now there were only doubts about political philosophy left. Hearing this, he nodded and looked directly at Old Zhu, saying: "My child really thinks so."

"Father, it is true that Hu Weiyong and others have committed a heinous crime, but it would be too much to punish them wantonly."

"You know, most of them, like Guo Huan, haven't had time to do the illegal things that future generations will do!"

"It's hard to convince the public to start this big prison at this time."

"Moreover, there are still many honest and upright officials who were thrown into imperial prison by Jin Yiwei because of Hu Weiyong's party's random accusations..."

"We know, we all know." Old Zhu patted Zhu Biao on the shoulder.

"Although we want to solve the major troubles in the four major cases as soon as possible at once. But why don't we have a deliberate intention to gain power?"

"You and Lao Wu sang well in the play before! It surfaced all the singing of Hu Weiyong and other rebellious officials and thieves, and gave us a chance to take them down."

"And next, you need to sing the second play with our father."

"We Liwei, you are kind, we sang the bad face, and then you should sing the red face."

"Father and son, we must thoroughly eradicate these bad things in the court at once!"
